Peel away,
layer by layer,
your hardened shell
of beliefs, attitudes and opinions
not your own.
Let the truth of you
come forth and bloom.

This is what my calendar says today. I'm not sure I know my truth. I was a human chameleon for so long that I just naturally took on the beliefs, attitudes and opinions of those around me. I'm still peeling my onion.

Who am I? Why am I here? It seems like I've spent my entire life trying to answer those two questions. I also spent a huge amount of time hating who I was and wanting to be someone else.

I guess I'm at the leg of my journey where answers are beginning to come. I had to get still enough to hear my Higher Power's voice and become willing to accept His guidance, His will and not my own. That is monumental in itself.
